> 
> Frederick August Kriese was my Grandfather. I don't have much credible
> information on him. What I have is that he was born in Wolhymien, Russia on
> July 15, 1885. His father was August Kriese. We are not sure of his mother
> we have it as Dorothea Luise Anklam, however we believe her last name is
> really Schmidt and that the last name of Anklam is the name of the lady he
> was travelling with when he emigrated at the age of 17. We do know that he
> has a brother Julius who was born in Russia in 1890. Julius became a
> naturalized Canadian on October 27, 1931 and is shown as a Harness maker in
> Drake, Saskatchewan.
> 
> Frederick Kriese married Emilie Olga Rattai in Greenbay, Manitoba on 
> November 20, 1910.
> 
> We are not sure how he got to Canada, we think he landed in New York. We
> have heard rumours that he may have had a brother in North Dakota but these
> are just rumors. We understand that he did have a sister Caroline.
> 
> Any help anyone can give us will be appreciated. What year did he leave
> Russia or Germany, who was his mother (for sure )and where did they live. 
> How did they get to Canada.
